Con il termine glicemia si intende la concentrazione di glucosio all’interno del sangue. Questa sostanza è fondamentale per il nostro organismo in quanto nutre le cellule, è importante però che rimanga sempre entro un certo range di valori per evitare una condizione di iperglicemia, condizione potenzialmente pericolosa per la salute. Il nostro corpo ha un fine sistema di regolazione che gli permette di mantenere il livello glicemico entrp determinati range sia a digiuno che dopo un pasto, grazie al rilascio di un ormone, l’insulina, che consente l’assorbimento del glucosio da parte delle cellule, riducendone così la concentrazione ematica. I valori glicemici a digiuno si attestano normalmente intorno a 60-75 mg/dl, mentre nella fase postprandiale salgono a 130-150 mg/dl.
